Why is Lebron health a question mark? |
Age. He just had the first major injury of his career. This is when player's bodies typically start breaking down. Lebron might be a cyborg though so we'll see. He seems to be built more in the Karl Malone mold, who played until 40. |
It's worth mentioning LeBron also takes care of his body more than most by using his time wisely working on conditioning and resting up and spending time with family. |

Well. AD is 26. But I hear you. It would have been nice to have gotten that 23-24 year old future star to pair with AD. Who could that have been?  |
PASS. If I am gonna have to hide that player defensive, he might as well be an elite in offense. Maybe in next 2 years if his knees keep up. |

I'm not the biggest Lebron fan, but I'll never doubt his work ethic or the way he takes care of his body. He knows how to conserve his energy on the court too. I just hope we can find a quick wing who can disrupt passing lanes the way Lonzo did. Otherwise our defense could get ugly. Lebron has already lost a lot of explosiveness. |

I haven’t seen many teams be able to bridge the gap with championships. I can’t really say the spurs have either. They’ve been consistent with making the playoffs but they’re not contenders.

Stop it was a groin tear from a slip trust could have happened to any 20 year old.

Coaching is a very important factor too. I think we have much better coaching team this year.
For starters, agreed KCP may start over Bradley with his ability to run fast break but Bradley may be more suitable to close out game.
McGee may be coming out of bench if Cousins is healthy. Cousins plays well with AD while McGee plays well with Kuzma and Rando.
Starters:
Cousins
AD
James
Green
KCP
Closing:
AD
Kuzma
James
Green
Bradley |
